The Forgotten Girl

De: David Bell

Narrado por: Dan John Miller

The past has arrived uninvited at Jason Danvers’s door - and it’s his younger sister, Hayden, a former addict who severed all contact with her family as her life spiraled out of control. Now she’s clean and sober but in need of a desperate favor - she asks Jason and his wife to take care of her teenage daughter for 48 hours while she handles some business in town. But Hayden never returns. And her disappearance brings up more unresolved problems from Jason’s past, including the abrupt departure of his best friend on their high school graduation night 27 years earlier. When a body is discovered in the woods, the mysteries of his sister’s life - and possible death - deepen. And one by one these events will shatter every expectation Jason has ever had about families, about the awful truths that bind them and the secrets that should be taken to the grave.

a lotta words, very little plot

I kept waiting for this to get better. it didn't happen. it was a lot of words for so little plot. for a while I was getting fed up with the foreshadowing of the foreshadowing which turned into a plot twist, which was no surprise. then the author wrapped it up in a tight little bow at the end. at that point, I still wasn't invested in the characters. it would have gone better if the author had written characters we could care about and given them a challenging and mysterious situation. but that wasn't it.

Bana-didn't hold my attention

seemed like I was lessening to the same chapter over and over. I know there's a need to for reputation of key points but it needed more substance

Great story

Disliked the fact that I had two hours left in book and it was locked because after 9/30 was no longer available! I feel this would be fine if book sat in library unread until the not included in membership anymore date. But when you are actively reading it everyday and it gets locked and they want full price to finish book that is ridiculous! I am rethinking my membership!

Great story!

I loved the story. It keeps you thinking and is very interesting. David Bell is a fantastic author.

Storyline had potential

The potential was there, but it did not deliver. The entire book, I was waiting to hear the twists of these stories, but when they finally delivered, it blended in with the rest of the story, like no actual gasp or any of that. I feel like it could’ve been written a bit better, but that’s just my opinion. When it said the end, I was really disappointed..
